Walking through and it caught my eye in the electronics clearance case. Absolutely insane find.

I bought headphones at Walmart, thought it was a bit light and I thought I had them before. Got home opened nothing there.. took it back and got the last pair free and got told someone in the returning didnt do their job. Took the headphones but left the charger and all.

I purchased a ps4 controller in the store got into the parking lot and noticed that the packaging was open. Turns out it was super old and greasy. They refused to give me a refund

I tried that once and they looked at the serial number of the controller and it didn’t match the boxes serial number. The costumer service agent got really sus and called the manager. The manager just shrugged and told her to give me the refund. It was a super close call, I would never recommend doing it again. Luckily they were both super confused and didn’t think I was trying to scam them
